Overview
Albania and Montenegro are located next to each other in southeastern Europe, overlooking the Adriatic Sea. They are both great destinations for beach holidays, excursions and cultural visits, which makes it difficult to choose between the two when deciding what to visit on holiday. This is why we have created a combination of these countries, selecting the best of the cities, in 5 days, a unique and unforgettable experience. Montenegro has a variety of towns and cities to explore, with tourism opportunities focusing primarily on the historic architecture and preserved buildings of previous inhabitants. Churches, squares and fortresses are common, along with some rather spectacular natural scenery. Albania's history is characterized by many hardships and political tensions, but the country's culture today is diverse and welcoming. Mediterranean and Balkan styles and traditions influence the culture, cuisine and people, and you will see Italian and Turkish flavors and approaches in particular in the food. The art and music in Albania is proudly unique, but there isn't the same kind of cultural offering in galleries that you'll find in other European countries.
Experience the ultimate 5-day tour combining Albania and Montenegro. Explore Montenegro's historic architecture and natural beauty, then dive into Albania's diverse culture and delicious cuisine. Unforgettable adventures await!
